HELP!
HELP!
HELP!
HELP! HELP! HELP! HELP! HELP! HELP! HELP! HELP! HELP! HELP! HELP!



HELP!

[Okay, surely that is a good enough attention-grabber, so moving on to the real (not that urgent) problem:]

Hello! I have a problem, and I need someone to solve it!! I'll owe you one!! Please don't look away or new and worse problems will undoubtedly arise next!!!!

How do you get corruption out of a thing? You know, an object? Can I do that? I've already read about how to get corruption out of a person, but this is different. It's starting to stain my floor...

If it helps, it's something from my home. I don't know if that matters, I really don't know anything about this stuff.

Obviously, I don't want to touch it!! But it's going to be a hassle for me if I can't clean it up. If you help me out, I'll be in your debt!

[Hm he used that one already, well—]

Please help, it's so embarrassing!!!

[Oh dare he ask...]

What is it?

[He might be able to help, but does he want to...]

[fanfavors]

Do you have to know that to give me advice? It's kind of personal...

It's nothing strange!! I swear!

Text| un: Shadow_Puppet (Sorry, I forgot to include lmao)

[stoicsilhouette]

[Nothing strange he says...hmm. But advice may be a little difficult on this.]

I'm an exorcist and was born that way- so not sure how to explain how. It's more of a biology thing, but I have a blood hound if it's that embarrassing.
[He probably seen worse.]

[faceblocks]

Is this thing something important to you? Obviously, the floor is important, but...

[fanfavors]

[What an innocuous question, and yet somehow the hardest question to answer honestly. No, he doesn't care about the Thing at all, he would love to throw it into the sea, but--]

It's not something I can part with!!

[Literally. Oops. No one needs to know that part... in public...]

I tried to get a sheet under it, but that didn't work.

[faceblocks]

Okay. Is that a literal "I can't part with it" because "Weird Trench Shit", or are you cool with someone bringing it to the Sanctuary for de-corrupting?

Maybe not even that far. My sworn sister's got a hound that eats corruption.

[that hound's at the sanctuary sometimes.]

Otherwise I'd try and punch it out, but I dunno about that. It sounds like it's...complicated?

[why....geese....]

I should be glad to help. My blood hound can do it. They can eat the corruption out of anything.

[fanfavors]

[the geese are a literary reference, like actually--]

What?

How do they do that?? Isn't that dangerous? I don't want to hurt any hounds.

[dohaeris]

It's what they're meant to do. They've learned to live off blood pollution, instead of other food. They are Beasts, but they're no more dangerous than any wild creature, and this one is my friend. We treat people for corruption very often.

How did the item in question even get so corrupted?

[fanfavors]

I don't know! I really have no idea, but when I went to look for something else, there it was... all disgusting! I really don't know what happened, it's like it was overnight.

[narrator voice: however, he hadn't been paying attention, so he was super wrong about all of that.]

[listenyouidiot]

Perhaps I could help you move it some place other than your home? To spare your floorboards, if nothing else.

[a little joke. also, hello! he has no idea that Huaisang is the one sending out this S.O.S. into the network aether, but he's incapable of ignoring anyone's cry for help.]

I know you've said you don't want anyone to risk themselves touching the object, but it must be miserable for you to have something so corrupted in your home.

[fanfavors]

[Oh

no, Fitz, no, don't just reply so earnestly to this complete stranger. This complete, definite stranger, who absolutely didn't just experience a strange spike of guilt in the face of Fitz's... earnestness? Should he have mentioned this to Fitz, actually, in person and properly? But then he would do something chivalrous (har) and get himself hurt by another awful Nie sbaer, and worse! This one is actually real!

In short: oh no.

Huaisang resolves to keep using text, until he decides to be an adult.]

I don't know about that!! Like I said, it's not safe to touch! Although I don't know how to repair the floor, either, now that you mention it...

text | un: noh_offense

[meds4sale]

My, my. What a fuss.

Do you know the nature of the corruption? Is it of a physical or spiritual nature?

[fanfavors]

It's both.

[oh yeah, this one he just knows, unlike all those other things he Doesn't Know... weird...]

Does that matter? It's still festering in my room!

Text; un: darkness

[survivalthroughhate]

[Hmmmm, how very interesting this quandary was....]

I've been able to get corruption out of a person before using my blood powers though I've never tried with an object before. I could still take a look at it if you'd like?

[fanfavors]

Ah, you have? Not with dogs?

[There's a lot of Bloodhound Stuff happening here on this post, he's a little thrown by it. Now, blood powers, those are just normal...]

What kind of blood do you have? I didn't know this was an option!

[syncopathic]

And you couldn't think of a way to ask this that DOESN'T involve spamming the goddamn network?

What the hell would you have done if it was an ACTUAL emergency, bang on every door in town?

[fanfavors]

It's working for me, so I don't know what the problem is.

What else is this thing for besides asking for help? The rest of the gossip is still there!

[chenqing_player]

[okay so he thought he knew what the man was flailing about...until he mentioned it staining the floor. Now he simply needs to ask.]

You probably need to say what it is that is staining your floor for people to be able to figure out how to help you. Found any useful information yet?

[Because obviously he is curious about many things in this regard and likes having information.]

[fanfavors]

What do you mean? I said it's corruption staining my floor, didn't I?

[ha ha. surely he wouldn't keep doing this on purpose.]

Apparently there's a kind of hound that will help me! Go figure! I wouldn't have expected something like that.

[schoolingfish]

maybe you could chop it up and toss it somewhere where no one will run into it?

[fanfavors]

No, it won't be chopped, it's too strong. And I don't think making more pieces will help...

Oh you can use incense I think

Do you have some??

[fanfavors]

Ah, no...? How is that going to help a thing that can't breathe?
